STAIND's AARON LEWIS Doesn't See Band Working 'For A While'

July 16, 2015

According to The Pulse Of Radio, STAIND has been mostly inactive since 2011 and singer Aaron Lewis said in a new interview that the band is probably going to stay that way for the foreseeable future. Asked by Shout Out Minnesota if the group has any plans, Lewis replied, "Not for a while. Mike Mushok, the guitar player, signed with another band and their new single just came out last week and he’s gonna be busy for three records with that band."

Mike Mushok is now playing in SAINT ASONIA with former THREE DAYS GRACE frontman Adam Gontier. The band's debut album is due out July 31.

Lewis, meanwhile, has been pursuing a career in the country music scene as a solo artist, releasing an EP and album and touring constantly.

But he maintains that fans have not seen the last of STAIND, saying, "We didn't break up and at some point STAIND will come back out. I don’t know if we’ll record a record or tour or what the deal will be… so this is what it is for a while."

STAIND has released seven studio albums dating back to 1996, with 11 Top 10 rock singles and four No. 1 tracks to their credit.
